I think everyone understands that if it's on tv and there are no price deals the crowd will be less ...who has said otherwise ? -

The forecast for Poole looks like heavy showers all day up intill 9 .The best course of action would be for a early call off to save everyone a lot of time and effort. -

But all these other sports that have them are not looked upon as Mickey mouse ? Yet again a only in speedway saying . THE sport won't move as it has to many fans stuck in the dark ages -
Like he buys all the stadiums where Speedway and Darts are played ? What are the crowds like for these mx events and what do they pay to get in ?
-
Why would Monday be perfect for fans ? it would be the worst night for many ...a million more sticking points than clubs just having to get there stadium on those nights .

Easy win for Swindon -
The bottom line is shov is right you reply (bite ) to his every post .
-
it's amazing he bites every time the rest of forum understood years ago that shov just having bit of a laugh .
-
Make sure you give him the correct money
-
You should have lent him a hand
-
They won the league last year ...try to think before you post
-
Spot on post ..your find it hard to find a Swindon fan who gives rats ass that he rides for Berwick ..as you say people would only care if he missed meetings because of that . get the fixture list sorted out to avoid clashes and it's not a problem .
-
A successful winning team with better riders will bring bigger crowds in .
-
Yea that is no doubt that is the main reason ..if it's allows a few good riders to come back all the better .
-
? THE numbers have been poor this year ..surely you must have been reading rosco asking why the fans are not supporting a winning side etc and asking people to turn up .
-
We were not even on a winning run when Doyle was missing the home matches ..the crowds for the wolves and Belle vue matches were way down on what you would expect .rosco confirmed that at the time .
-
The question of can we pay for them is quite clearly another matter and in most cases we can't ...but to say they don't bring in better crowds is madness ..I am sure the main reason for fixed nights is to stop fixtures clashes between the leagues meaning that there is no clashes for the double up riders so teams can track there normal 1 to 7 's .if also brings some better riders back then all the better .
-
If fixed nights is done with only the premiership riding on thou's night it serves loads more than one purpose ..never understood this this thing that top stars don't bring in bigger crowds .. in football .if Messi plays at Swindon town next week the crowd would much bigger even if he much better than the rest, and you could used that example in nearly every sport . But somehow in speedway it's different ? I don't think so .
-
Be serious ? how about you start being that ...on the start of our run we beat the likes of Belle Vue Wolves etc with Doyle and Morris etc missing even thou we were massive underdogs with the bookmakers to do so. in fact v Belle vue Swindon were +16 on the hc to win ...don't start going on about riders missing guests and rr as Swindon have had as many as the next club . Your comment is even more odd as Swindon when they so say fell apart last night were full of these guests and rr that in your opinion are so easy to beat .

Can't believe you put in a probably lol
